Christmas Doodle Fun!
OK, that's the warning out of the way! As you can imagine with two weeks in bed, I got very behind with everything, and unfortunately this Advent Calendar message is going out much later than I had originally planned. It gives everyone only the weekend to prepare for all the exciting things we have coming up in our Online Advent Calendar - but please do read on, because we have some great things planned!
Online Advent Calendar
Last year's Online Advent Calendar was hugely popular, but we think this year's is even better! Firstly, we are really excited to be providing a Colouring Advent Calendar this year. We've never seen anything like it before, either on the internet or for sale. We will be providing a mini-colouring page every day which we hope you'll put together into a fantastic Advent Calendar Banner (ours looks so pretty!) or Advent Colouring Book during December. Get more details at the link below.
In addition we'll have a special activity every day - sometimes a craft, sometimes a printable, sometimes a cooking activity - and on top of that we will have games to play, activity suggestions, videos to watch, jokes to enjoy, fun facts and more!
Find out how to get ready for the Colouring Advent Calendar here:http://www.activityvillage.co.uk/coloring_advent_calendar.htm
Links to the Online Advent Calendar
Here are the links for the various Online Advent Calendars:

If you'd like to take part in the craft activities in the first week of the online Advent Calendar, you will need to assemble a few bits and pieces:
Red, white and green pipe cleaners; a yogurt pot and a small jar; gold tissue paper; tracing paper, decorations such as sequins and glitter; ribbon or yarn in Christmas colours; metallic pens; glue and double sided tape.
We have one recipe planned on Tuesday 1st December, for which you will need:Plain flour, caster sugar, butter, vanilla extract, salt, icing sugar (confectioners).
We hope you'll join in the fun with the online Advent Calendar, and tell your friends and family about it!

Elephant coloring pages
Elephants are the largest land animals now living. The elephant's gestation period is 22 months, the longest of any land animal. At birth it is common for an elephant calf to weigh 120 kilograms (260 lb). They typically live for 50 to 70 years, but the oldest recorded elephant lived for 82 years. The largest elephant ever recorded was shot in Angola in 1956. This male weighed about 12,000 kilograms (26,000 lb), with a shoulder height of 4.2 metres (14 ft), a metre (yard) taller than the average male African elephant. The smallest elephants, about the size of a calf or a large pig, were a prehistoric species that lived on the island of Crete during the Pleistocene epoch.
The elephant has appeared in cultures across the world. They are a symbol of wisdom in Asian cultures and are famed for their memory and intelligence, where they are thought to be on par with cetaceans and hominids. Aristotle once said the elephant was "the beast which passeth all others in wit and mind". The word "elephant" has its origins in the Greek ἐλέφας, meaning "ivory" or "elephant".
